Example

3(r+2s)=2t-4
a⋅(b-2)=3b
3(r+2s)=2t-4
a⋅(b-2)=3b

Question

$$8x-3=5x+8$$

Answer

x=11/3

Solution


Add \(3\) to both sides.
\[8x=5x+8+3\]
Simplify  \(5x+8+3\)  to  \(5x+11\).
\[8x=5x+11\]
Subtract \(5x\) from both sides.
\[8x-5x=11\]
Simplify  \(8x-5x\)  to  \(3x\).
\[3x=11\]
Divide both sides by \(3\).
\[x=\frac{11}{3}\]
